Patrick Johnson

Patrick Johnson appears regularly throughout the Midwest as a solo, chamber, and orchestral pianist. In the summer of 2014, he performed with the Pittsburgh New Music Ensemble. Other 2013-14 performances included chamber recitals on the seasons of both the Lansing Symphony Orchestra and the Ann Arbor Symphony Orchestra, as well as solo recitals in metro Detroit and at Michigan State University. An avid orchestral musician, he is Principal Piano for the Michigan Philharmonic and the Lansing Symphony Orchestra. He is featured on over forty recordings. Now in his eleventh year as a sacred musician for the Archdiocese of Detroit, he is organist and music director at St. Mary Magdalen Church in Hazel Park. Patrick received degrees in piano performance from the University of Michigan and Michigan State University, as well as a master’s degree in music theory at Michigan State University, where he is currently a doctoral candidate in piano performance and an instructor of music theory. Patrick will be joining the Michigan Phil as featured soloist on Peggy Glanville-Hicks’ Etruscan Concerto for Piano and Chamber Orchestra (1954) during our “Tchaikovsky Spectacular” on Sunday, March 18th at the First United Methodist Church in Plymouth.
